Unlike the western regions of the United States, there are only two national parks in Texas – Big Bend on the Rio Grande and Guadalupe Mountains with Signal Peak, highest point in Texas. On our round trip we visited both of them. Our picture show is completed by a detour to New Mexico, where the huge stalactite caves of Carlsbad Caverns invite you to visit. Also in New Mexico is the dune landscape of White Sands, in the meantime upgraded to a national park, that definitely shouldn’t be missed.
